        How did you open the LCD ? I've try to get to those parts and it's very difficult. Do you have a Guide?

          No specific instructs but they are all very similar and do not mix up the order of the diffuser sheets.
          Here are many videos on the subject.

            Any help will greatly be apriciated.

              you might be best off starting a new thread on your tv.

              you will need pics of the rear, without the back cover on and pics of each board and it will start things off quickly if you can also list the voltages on the wiring connector that runs to the main board.

              list it as
              pin no, pin desc, v in stby, v when powered on.





              we can then start guiding you where to look and what to test.
              WHY CAN'T PHILIPS USE PHILLIPS HEAD SCREWS?

                  I came across one of these too. Had the image on the screen if the flashlight was shining on it. I opened up the panel as you suggested, and two of those connectors linking the LED strips fell off in my hand.
                  Resoldered them, got it back together, and it lights up!

                  See, I do search here before posting a question. :-)

                  Thanks again.
